Mycophenolic acid
Mycophenolic acid is an immunosuppressant medicine used primarily to prevent organ rejection in patients receiving kidney, heart, or liver transplants, generally in combination with other immunosuppressive agents. It works by selectively inhibiting inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH), reducing the production of guanosine nucleotides required for T- and B-lymphocyte proliferation. It is available in delayed-release oral tablets, while mycophenolate mofetil, a prodrug of mycophenolic acid, is supplied in oral and intravenous formulations.
